  • What I have done so far:

    • Updated all apps (including Bootloader)
    • Installed/Uninstalled GPS Info app
    • Flashed firmware

    Despite all that GPS Info app still states "0 satelites". Even after an hour long walk away from tall buildings.

    To debug I used following code:

    Bangle.setGPSPower(1);
    
    Bangle.on('GPS-raw', function(gps) {
        print(gps);
    });
    

    Output is:


    | |_ ___ ___ _ ||___ ___
    | |_ -| . | _| | | | | . |
    |
    |_| || |_|||_|_|

    Afterwards I updated the code to print GPS data every 5 seconds:

    Bangle.setGPSPower(1);
    
    Bangle.on('GPS-raw', function(gps) {
      if (Date().getSeconds() % 5 === 0){
        print(gps);
      }
    });
    

    And noticed a repeating block of values:

    $GNRMC,,V,,,,,,,,,,N*4D
    $GNVTG,,,,,,,,,N*2E
    $GNGGA,,,,,,0,00,99.99,,,,,,*56
    $GNGSA,A,1,,,,,,,,,,,,,99.99,99.99,99.99­*2E
    $GPGSV,1,1,00*79
    $GNGLL,,,,,,V,N*7A

    I have attached a screenshot from a phone showing satellite coverage if it's of any help.
